The facts about faxing

 
In the early 70’s, when my company, Sal Bianco Inc., was growing, and I had just captured two new customers, I had to telex them between my offices in Hong Kong, Seoul, and newly opened China. It cost a lot to constantly use the telex machine to communicate, as well as the time spent to try to say what was needed saying in the shortest amount of words. At the time, the only way to communicate to foreign countries was Telexing, which was very expensive and slow. You paid by the letter and it was very time consuming to have to plan how say what you wanted using the least amount of words, then wait  days for a reply, which was coded with prearranged meanings. So, when I was asked by a company, Hewlett Packard, to test out there new product, I was very interested, and asked for more information. It was just invented and I got one of the first fax machines. This new machine was to change the world of business, especially for me!!! It was a fax machine and it changed the way I did business completely. But having only one was useless and so I purchased two, one for my NY office, and one for my Hong Kong office.  to get it to my Hong Kong Office I remember carrying it on the plane, and putting it in the compartment above with all passengers looking at me with this strange device. When i set it up in my Hong Kong office , I proceeded to send a message to my New York office.It was a wonder, as in only 5 minutes later I received a fax welcoming me and thereafter followed many pages of information on our daily business, arrived. Upon returning to New York, and after a short time, I realized how much it did for communicating , so I then bought two more for one each of my new customers at that time. It changed the way doing business was done, and gave me an advantage over my competitors. I eventually bought one for each on my 4 other offices, as well as recommend using faxes to my largest customer the F. W. Woolworth Inc. My communication costs dropped and my business grew to become White Knight Ad Ventures LLC
